Chapter 326: Luronse
Why did Lu Bu suddenly join forces with Gongsun Du to attack Liaoxi?
This started when Dong Yan sent a letter to Lu Bu, asking him to come forward to calm the conflict between Gongsun Du and Fan Chou.
To be honest, when Lu Bu received Dong Li's letter, he was unhappy.
I think that back then, you Dong Xiping had your father's support, and instructed me to do this, and just do that. Now that you have fallen into the Western Regions, you actually sent someone to send me a letter to let me be a mediator? I'm a dignified pastor now.
Indeed, Lu Bu's current official position is very capable of bluffing.
Youzhou Mu, Wen Hou, General Wei, which title is taken out, is also not to be underestimated.
Although Dong Li's letter is very tactful and polite, there is no meaning of pointing fingers in it.
But Lu Bu still felt that the mood in his heart was not very smooth.
According to Lu Bu's temperament, he doesn't want to care about this matter. Although Liaodong and Lelang are under the rule of Youzhou, what Lu Bu wants to do most now is to find trouble with Yuan Shao. If it weren't for Yuan Shao, how could he have that fiasco in the clouds?
Wei You stepped forward to dissuade Lu Bu.
Liu Yu died...... Since Fu Lu Bu took the throne, Wei You's health has also begun to deteriorate.
After all, this age, coupled with the harsh climate in Youzhou, complicated official business, etc., makes Wei You's body worse day by day.
However, after hearing Dong Li's letter, he still dragged his sick body to find Lu Bu.
Lu Bu was drinking with his wife Yan and Lai Ying'er in the garden. In addition to these three people, there are two children, a man and a woman.
The boy's name is Lu Chu, born to Lu Bu and his wife Yan, and he is fourteen years old.
This Yan family is also a big family in the state, and Lu Bu was able to rise back then, and there are a lot of Yan family's contributions. This Yan was born with a bold temperament, capable of literature and martial arts. His son Lu Chu is also physically strong, much taller and burly than his peers.
This Lu Zhu followed Lu Bu to learn martial arts, and a Fang Tian painting halberd made him superb.
It's just that he is still young, and Lu Bu loves him very much, and refuses to let Lu Chu go to the battlefield, so he is still not famous.
daughter Lu Xin is six years old.
It is the crystallization of Lai Ying'er and Lu Bu, who not only has the beauty of her mother at a young age, but also has the heroism of her father.
Don't look at Lu Xin as a concubine, but the family's love for Lu Xin even exceeds that of Lu Xin. In Lu Bu's words, "My daughter is born rich and noble. If I am not a hero who dominates the world in the future, I don't want to marry my daughter. ”
Therefore, when Wei You came to visit, Lu Bu did not let his wife and concubine leave, but hugged Lu Xin to greet him.
In the eyes of the Saishang, letting the wife and concubine come forward to entertain is a kind of respect for the guests. But if this custom falls into the eyes of the scholars, it is an extreme insult. How can a woman be on the stage? In the romance, Lu Bu asked his wife and concubine to come forward to greet Liu Bei in Xuzhou, but Zhang Fei was so angry that he drew his sword to duel with Lu Bu. In fact, in addition to looking down on Lu Bu, there are also certain differences in cultural concepts and customs. It's just that Lu Bu and Zhang Fei refused to explain.
Fortunately, Wei You was also born in Youzhou, and he can understand Lu Bu's habit.
After sitting down, Wei You exchanged a few words of greeting and said straight to the point: "Lord, I heard that you don't plan to come forward to mediate the conflict between Liaodong and Lelang?" ”
Lu Bu's face sank, nodded and said, "Bu really doesn't want to come forward." Liaodong and Lelang are located in remote areas, why should I come forward for this matter? Let the two of them fight to the death, and I will take advantage of the fisherman, wouldn't it save a lot of trouble? ”
Wei You shook his head, "Lord, you are wrong! ”
If someone else said this, Lu Bu would have kicked over the table and pulled out his sword to kill the other party.
But Wei You is different, no matter what, he is half of Lu Bu's teacher.
Although he was a little unhappy in his heart, Lu Bu still said patiently: "Sir, where is Bu wrong? The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits, what's wrong with that? ”
Wei Yu said: "Who does the lord think is the biggest enemy?" ”
Lu Bu thought for a while and replied: "Yuan Shao and Xianbei outside the Saiwai are my great enemies. ”
"What do you think the lord thinks he can have in the confrontation with these two sides?"
Lu Bu thought about it, but didn't answer.
Wei Yu Zhengse said: "Although Xianbei is powerful, it is already prosperous and declining. Compared with his father, one is a tiger and the other is a domestic dog who does not have a climate. There is Zhang Liao and Xu Huang in Shuofang to contain him, and even if he has the heart, he is unable to go south...... However, it is not expected that Yuan Shao is extraordinary. Even if the lord can defeat him, it will not be possible to do it in ten days. ”
When the old man said this, he was very calm and direct.
Although Lu Bu is arrogant, he is not a person who does not know what to do. Hearing the old man say this, he couldn't help but nod his head in acknowledgement.
"If the lord and Yuan Shao clash, then Gongsun and Fan Chou, no matter which one wins, will definitely increase in strength. When the time comes, he is in the eastern border of Liaodong, how can he be willing? Once the trouble starts, you will face the embarrassment of being attacked on your back. ”
Lu Bu heard this and gasped.
"What if I wave my troops to capture Liaodong Lelang?"
"Hehe, don't look at Gongsun Du and Fan Chou fighting fiercely now, but after all, they are all from a family. If the lord sends troops, the two of them will definitely give up their previous suspicions and join forces to fight. Don't forget, this is not the second state, there is still Yuan Shao. ”
Lu Bu's cheeks twitched twice.
This old guy still sees the long term, but I don't think about it so much.
"Dare to ask sir, how can I do that cloth?"
"Gongsun and Fan Chou must coexist. The two contain each other, which can ensure that our rear is safe for the time being. After we can clean up Yuan Shao, we will deal with these two. When the time comes, we will dominate the three northern states, and we will not be worried about the Lelang of Liaodong. ”
Wei You said, lightly twisting his beard and said, "What's more, we can also take this opportunity to sell the face of the king of the Western Regions." ”
"Why do you want to sell him this face?"
Wei You smiled: "It's very simple, we need Shuo Fang to maintain the containment of Xianbei. Lord, do you think that king of the Western Regions will be willing to stay in the Western Regions for the rest of his life? Looking at what they are doing is to clear the hidden dangers behind them. Once the Western Regions are pacified, Dong Xiping will definitely send troops...... It's better to have an ally like that, there's always more than one enemy, isn't it? ”
Wei You's earnest words made Lu Bu fall into deep thought.
"Really, do you want to help him?"
Raise your head and look at the warbler.
I saw that Lai Ying'er was concentrating on teasing her daughter, and she didn't listen to what Lu Bu and Wei You were saying at all.
Lu Bu is unhappy with Dong Li, and there is another unknown reason.
I think that at the beginning, Dong Yan plagiarized an article in Chang'an, and gave it to Ying'er, which caused a sensation in Luoyang.
I came to Ying'er for a while, and I was extremely obsessed with Dong Yan because of this.
If she didn't know about Cai Yan's existence, she would have no hope of entering the Dong family, and this marriage is really a little unclear.
Some people may ask, why can Lu Bu marry Ying'er, but Dong Li can't?
It's very simple, Lu Bu's wife, Yan, is just the daughter of a big family in Jiuyuan, and to put it bluntly, she doesn't have any social status.
Therefore, if you want to take a concubine as Lu Bu, there is naturally no problem.
But Cai Yan is different!
The daughter of Mr. Feibai Cai Yong, a world-famous talented woman. With such an identity, Dong Li can marry Ren Hongchang and Dong Lu, but it is impossible to marry a maiko. That is an identity that Cai Yong and Cai Yan can't accept.
Lu Bu also learned about this matter later.
It is inevitable that there will be some pimples in my heart. The reason why he apprenticed to Wei Yu was that there were also some Dong Yan reasons in it.
The martial arts can't be compared, and the literary ones can't either. Even the object of the concubine was married to him in the end because Dong Li did not accept it.
This made Lu Bu feel comfortable, how could he be comfortable?
Fortunately, since marrying Lu Bu, she has come to Ying'er to teach her husband and children, and she has behaved very decently.
Lu Bu also loves Ying'er, since everyone is smart not to mention this matter, he doesn't bother to go through the old accounts again.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Bu said, "In that case, I would like to ask Mr. to write a letter in my name to that Gongsun Du and Fan Chou." Let's just say that I have been instructed by the Marquis of Gonggong, and ask the two of them to stop the army, each guard his own territory, and there must be no more conflicts. If not...... I will raise up troops and join forces with one of them. When the time comes, don't blame me for not being emotional. ”
Wei You heard this and nodded in agreement.
Fan Chou is not a troublemaker, he guards Lelang, and at the same time, according to Dong Zhuo's explanation, he strikes Sanhan fiercely. This conflict was completely provoked by Gongsun Du. In fact, Gongsun Du was under pressure from Buyeo and Wuhuan, and he also hoped to expand the rear and increase his power. This is naturally inevitable, and there is a serious conflict with Fan Chou.
Although Dong Zhuo died, Fan Chou was still loyal to the Dong family.
Gongsun Du is different, he is an ambitious guy. As soon as Dong Zhuo died and the Kanto region was in turmoil, he had some thoughts.
After receiving Lu Bu's letter, Fan Chou naturally had no opinion.
But Gongsun Du was full of complaints...... However, he can't help it, just Liaodong, he really can't compete with Lu Bu.
Therefore, Gongsun Du set his sights on the western direction of Liaoning.
Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Du, although they are both surnamed Gongsun, have no relationship with each other.
Gongsun Fan is in western Liaoning, as if he is a self-reliant mountain. Not only did he not obey Lu Bu's orders, but he also repeatedly joined forces with Wuhuan to harass Liaodong.
On the one hand, it is to deter Youzhou, and on the other hand, it is also to appease Gongsun Du.
Lu Bu decided to join forces with Gongsun Du to attack Gongsun Fan, and then divide Liaodong equally, which made Gongsun Du's heart balance a lot.
In March of the fourth year of Xingping, the war in the Western Regions had come to an end.
Weng Guimi was killed by Dong Li's general Yue Xi, and Dian Wei's beggar army entered Wusun in the first month, and rushed straight to the city of Chijin like a decay. Yuan Guimi didn't expect that Weng Guimi's hundreds of thousands of troops would be killed, and he didn't have time to react, and he was already in the city. In desperation, Yuan Guimi offered his book and was escorted to live in Han'an County.
At this point, the Western Regions War, which lasted for a whole year, officially ended.
The vassal states of the Green Mountains and the Tianshan Mountains, after learning the news of the successive destruction of Dawan and Wusun, surrendered one after another.
Dong Yan did not refuse, and sent all these princes and kings to Han'an County.
With Yang Xu in charge of arranging these princes and kings, Dong Li didn't bother to pay attention to this matter.
Zang Ba led the army of Chen soldiers in the Hujie grassland, and joined forces with Chen Zhi's Tabai soldiers to gain a firm foothold in the Northern Xiongnu grassland.
As a result, the Western Regions began a long period of recuperation.
******
Lu Longsai, located in the east of the foothills of Xu Wu Mountain, is located between two mountains, one side is Yunshan, and the other is called Meishan.
It is the gateway to the northwest of Liaoning and has an extremely important strategic position.
Hehe, someone may ask, Luronse? Haven't heard of it...... How is it that it is not a strategic fortress?
In fact, if this Lulongsai is called by the name of later generations, it will be called Xifengkou.
The whole Lulongsai is built on the mountain, with three city walls, forming a 'day' shaped defense system.
The periphery wall is high and long, three zhang wide, one hundred zhang long, there are stones piled up from the inside to the outside, and the city tower of two zhang high stands in the center area, and it is called the Wangri Tower.
At both ends of the main city wall, there are buttresses. There was also a tower on each of the city walls.
The city tower located on the plum mountain is called the plum building; The city tower located on the cloud mountain is called the cloud tower.
From the main city wall to the inward one hundred steps, there is a tall city tower between the two mountains, fifty zhang long, three zhang wide, named Lulong Tower.
This was originally built to prevent the invasion of the Hu people, and the city wall can be said to be high and solid.
There were barracks, stables, and granaries. As long as the guard is not a fool, 3,000 elite soldiers can block the 100,000 army from Lulongsai for a year. It can be said that it has taken advantage of the time and place, and it is the moat in the northwest of Liaoning.
Zhao Yun received the order and rushed to Lulongsai.
In this regard, Gongsun Fan is not a waste either. Not only did he transfer Zhao Yun Tianyu back from the White Wolf, but he also appointed Zhao Yun as the chief general of Lu Longsai, who had the right to cut first and then play, and all the materials could be at Zhao Yu's disposal.
Zhao Yun is a very affectionate person in his bones.
If Gongsun Fan also sent someone to contain him, he would have dealt with it.
But Gongsun Fan is like this, but it shows his incomparable trust in Zhao Yun. This made Zhao Yun, how could he not do his best.
So much so that Tian Yu smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that in this way, Zilong won't even want to get out of Liaoxi!" ”
Yes, Zhao Yun has already made up his mind to defend Lu Longsai to the death, and he wants to live and die with this Lu Longsai.
Standing on the tower of Lulong City, watching the entire fortress busy, Zhao Yun couldn't help but clench the hilt of the sword.
This time, he has to face Lu Bu!
Since the battle with Lu Bu outside the Tiger Prison Pass, Zhao Yun has cultivated even harder.
I have to say that his qualifications are really extraordinary. In just a few years, he has fulfilled the mystery of lifting weights, and there are faint signs of entering the realm of lifting weights. For several years, what he had been waiting for was to be able to fight with Lu Bu.
"Guorang, I will watch the Rilou, you come to sit in Lulong Tower!"
Tian Yu frowned and said softly: "Zilong, you are the main general, how can you wade into danger lightly?" I'll come to the town to watch the sun. ”
Zhao Yun said: "Guorang, if you say that you are decisive in front of the two armies and gallop among thousands of soldiers and horses, you are not as good as me; But he strategized, sat in the Chinese army, and waited for the opportunity to move...... Hehe, I'm not as good as you. Don't fight with me anymore, with you in charge of Lu Long, I can rest assured that I will tear and kill in front. Lulonglou is the most important place, and the cloud will entrust everything to you! ”
Speaking of which, what else can Tian Yu say?
******
The days passed in silence day by day.
Six days after Zhao Yun arrived in Lulongsai, Lu Bu's army was slaughtered at Guanxia.
Standing on the Wangri Tower, Zhao Yun raised his eyes and looked into the distance. I saw the banner waving, the Youzhou army armor was distinct, and the spirit was vibrant.
The red Daxu, the general of the Han Wei in the book, the word 'Lu' in the big fight, pinching the gold edge, walking the silver line, shining in the sun.
A hissing red rabbit beast rushed out of the gate.
Immediately general, wearing gold Tang Yi armor, the big red unicorn robe hunts with the wind. A square sky painting halberd in the palm of his hand, wearing a purple and gold bundle of hair and a golden crown, the young chicken feather swaying, the end is a person like a tiger, a horse is like a dragon, downstairs in Wangri, walking and circling.
Zhao Yun recognized it at a glance, and it was Lu Bu immediately.
When I saw Lu Bu, I thought of Xia Houlan, and I remembered the fiasco under the Tiger Prison that year.
It is really thanks to the self-cultivation and qi cultivation over the years, as the martial arts become more and more exquisite, this mind is also more calm.
If it was before, Zhao Yun would definitely be an enemy meeting, and he would be very red-eyed.
But at this moment, Zhao Yun's heart gave birth to a ridiculous thought: it was the Heavenly Dao Cycle...... A few years ago, although I was in battle under the Tiger Prison Pass, for six years, I seemed to have lost one by one, which is really interesting.
Looking downstairs, Lu Bu shouted: "I am Youzhou Mu Lu Bu, the army has arrived, why don't you surrender immediately?" ”
Zhao Yun sneered and replied, "Who do I think it is?" The three family slaves also dare to call themselves state pastors, which is really shameless! ”
This sentence scolded Lu Bu in anger, and the halberd pointed at Zhao Yun and said: "Nobody, don't take advantage of your tongue, dare to fight with your family Wenhou?" ”
"That's exactly what I mean!"
Zhao Yun is not afraid of Lu Bu, although he was defeated last time, he has not given up the desire to fight with Lu Bu again.
Since Lu Bu called for battle, how could he refuse?
At that moment, he ordered a thousand ironclad troops, picked up his guns and rushed out of Lu Longsai.
Here, however, one thing has to be mentioned. As the secret of Dong Li's stirrups was discovered by Cao Cao, these stirrups have gradually spread, and almost the entire cavalry generals of the Han Dynasty have horseshoes on their horses and are equipped with double stirrups.
Zhao Yun dismounted from his crotch, he was a white dragon horse, but he was a pure-blooded Dawan good horse.
If you want to say that Zhao Yun is right, Tian Yu really has nothing to say.
Lao Tian's family is a Yongnu clan, and naturally there are various business dealings. Tian Yu paid a lot of money and invited his clansmen to hook up BMW silver guns from Zhangye, including the lotus leaf Mingguang armor on Zhao Yun's body, which was also from the Western Regions, and was no worse than Lu Bu's equipment.
Of course, compared to the Red Rabbit Hissing Wind Beast, Zhao Yun's White Dragon Pony was still a step behind.
But even so, it is already the top equipment among the Han generals.
Zhao Yun jumped out of the formation, and the white dragon horse shook his head and tail, neighing and roaring. Not to be outdone, the red rabbit horse kept neighing, and its front hooves clattered on the ground, sending a signal of challenge to the white dragon horse.
When Lu Bu saw Zhao Yun, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Gongsun Fan, a dog who guards the house, why is there such a fierce general?
At Lu Bu's level, he only needs to take a look to know the level of the opponent.
This Zhao Yun is not weak!
But what a proud person Lu Bu was, Le Ma shouted: "The enemy general on the other side, report your name." Under the halberd of a certain family, he does not kill the nameless. ”
This is also Zhao Yun, if he were an ordinary general, Lu Bu would have rushed forward without saying a word.
Now asking Zhao Yun's name shows that Lu Bu attaches great importance to Zhao Yun.
Six years have passed since the First World War in Tiger Prison. The ignorant boy who had just come down the mountain back then has now become mature.
Zhao Yun is twenty-seven this year and has just entered his peak state.
Hearing Lu Bu's inquiry, Zhao Yun said: "Changshan Zhao Zilong, remember the name of your general!" ”
As he spoke, he rode his horse with a gun and rushed towards Lu Bu.
Lu Bu didn't answer, there was a flying tiger toad on both feet, and the red rabbit hissing wind beast jumped up suddenly, and pounced towards Zhao Yun.
Fang Tian's halberd was originally dragged backwards, but as the red rabbit horse galloped out, Lu Bu swung and slashed.
The speed of the two horses was very amazing, and Zhao Yun's spear stabbed out, but it turned into pear blossoms, and the shadow of the spear was heavy.
One is to simplify the complex, and the other is to simplify the complex.
The moment the guns and halberds exchanged fire in the air, the two horses were already shining on their heads.
The white dragon horse shook its head and crashed into the red rabbit horse, and the red rabbit horse kicked the white dragon horse with its hooves back. This man fights, and the horse does not want to be idle.
After a crisp sound, the two horses neighed.
The Red Rabbit Beast took a few steps back, while the White Dragon Horse retreated a dozen steps in a row, almost falling to his knees.
Zhao Yun couldn't help but gasp, and his arm felt numb.
Lu Bu also secretly said to himself, and said in his heart: This young general actually has such skills? can take my blow, but I'm afraid that it is not weaker than Yu Tinghou six years ago.
"Boy, good skills!"
Lu Bu had a heart of love for talents, and he wanted to take Zhao Yun down.
But Zhao Yun refused to give him this opportunity, and twisted his gun to attack again.
Zhao Yun's marksmanship is extremely weird. It seems that he tried his best to make a move, but he always left behind a treacherous trick.
If Lu Bu exerts all his strength, he often hits in the air.
And Zhao Yun's gun, just like a coiled snake, is always on the defensive most of the time, and as soon as Lu Bu's offensive fails, he will pounce on it, and it happens to hit the empty space where the old force has been exhausted and the new force has not been born.
This is Lu Bu, who would have lost his life a long time ago.
Lu Bu's attack was like a storm, no matter how dangerous it was, it would always be defused by Zhao Yun.
One is guarding, but hiding murderous intentions; One is to attack, and the move is deadly.
The two men fought together, from noon to dusk. The war drums of the two armies did not know how many sides had been broken, and the shouts of the soldiers also became hoarse and weak.
Gradually, Zhao Yunke couldn't support it!
After all, Lu Bu is Lu Bu, he is used to seeing strong winds and waves, and his experience is much richer than Zhao Yunke.
The two fought for more than a dozen rounds, and Lu Bu suddenly handed Fang Tian's halberd to his right hand, and his body turned sideways on the horse, letting go of Zhao Yun's big gun, and grabbed the barrel of the gun with a bang. And Zhao Yun didn't panic, he pushed the gun along the way, and when the second horse staggered, he suddenly pulled out the sword under his ribs, and slashed at Lu Bu.
This sword is elusive.
Lu Bu was caught off guard, with an exclamation, he let go of the big gun, and his body fell down, and Sen Han's sword cut off the golden crown of hair on his head.
However, after this sword was cut out, the white dragon horse under Zhao Yun's crotch was also a little unsupportable.
As soon as his front hooves went soft, he fell to his knees with a plop. Zhao Yunpeng fell to the ground, Lu Bu straightened his waist, saw this situation, shouted, and didn't care about the bun scattered, and stabbed at Zhao Yun with a halberd.
After fighting for most of the day, Zhao Yun couldn't hold it anymore.
After falling so hard, my body fell apart a little.
Seeing that Fang Tian's painting halberd falling, Zhao Yun secretly screamed in his heart: My life is over!
The eyes are closed, but in this heart, there are no more regrets. To be able to fight the evil tiger is enough for life!
